Growing Closer To Jesus Daily
One day in heaven, God shall come and wipe away all tears from our eyes. There will be no more sorrow, nor death.
Matthew 22:29,30 (KJV)
29 Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.
30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.
We won’t ever know what is God’s Word and His scriptures unless we read them for ourselves. Don’t just take people’s word for it.
Oh, that people would have a heart to fear God and keep His commandments in our time as in the past. This is God’s desire for us.
When we feel God is distant, do more than pray and read the Bible daily, but also go out of your comfort zone to bless others.
We don’t look down upon others because they are not of the faith. Instead, we show compassion, kindness, and love to everyone.
Unless we die to self and turn to God, then we will die in our sins. We can’t disregard God and His commandments and still expect to be saved.
During the time of plagues, like the coronavirus, we are directed to pray. To see the plagues in our hearts and cry out for mercy.
God’s people were surrounded with no way out, but to call upon the Lord God in prayer. Even their trumpets sounded, in order to get people’s attention that God is their deliverer.
All people that have faith in Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all, are redeemed and no longer in slavery because of the laws of Moses.
Matthew 22:36-40 (KJV)
36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the first and great commandment.
39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
Our love for God becomes real, as we go out in the world and begin to light it up. We see those people that are in need and care for them.
We have learned the importance of enduring persecution and temptation. That our love will extend towards others in the faith and outside the faith through evangelism.
So what does it make a person that forgets God’s commandments and still says that they have faith in and know the Lord Jesus?
God has no joy in Mormon missionaries and their service, for what they teach is blasphemy to God’s Word.
Matthew 22:35-40 (KJV)
35 Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,
36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the first and great commandment.
39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
Every person that walks apart from God will be in trouble come judgement day. They will hear the words, “I never knew you”.
When God’s love comes into our lives, our desires are flipped upside down. Instead of wanting so much, we instead give what we can.
Know this for certain that, in heaven, the people there will experience joy and happiness that never ends.
Our belief in God is the first step of following Him. Our openness to God allows Him to pour into us and give us wisdom.
The early church members are a great example of how a Christian ought to live a life for Christ. When I say ought to, it means desire to live righteously and get off of the path of wickedness.
Joseph Smith was the first prophet of Mormonism. Let us look at 5 things that he revealed to the world to see if they are on par with the Bible.
Do not be deceived into following any teaching from a seducing spirit. Trust in God and read the Bible that you may not be led astray.
Many false teachings can come into a church, when new “so-called” revelation begins to override what the Bible teaches.
When the Lord takes us in, we are all given talents. Some few and some many. What have you done with God’s gifts in your life?
We learn of the Lord Jesus’s power when it is written, “The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.”
Upon arriving to their temple, I was energized to talk with as many people as I could. I invited everyone walking down the sidewalk to take the handout.
Because of the vast amount of churches, now a days, check their doctrines and teachings with the Bible.
Some people would rather keep believing something contrary to the Bible in order to not break up families and relationships.
Most visitors left in their cars but some walked home. One young man came out of the temple and started walking on the sidewalk, near me.
